Barbra Streisand stands up for the Jews and the gays as ‘Queer Eye’ heads to Yasss Vegas

Barbra Streisand, the iconic singer and advocate for Jewish and LGBTQ rights, recently used her platform on X to denounce Donald Trump for his supposed admiration of Adolf Hitler. In her emphatic post, she stated, “For the Jews and Gay people that were killed by Hitler, we can’t let America be led by an authoritarian who admires him.” With the U.S. presidential election on the horizon, she expressed her hope for Kamala Harris to lead the country instead of Trump.

The response to Streisand’s post was a mix of support and backlash, particularly from staunch Trump supporters. In a follow-up, she cited Trump’s former Chief of Staff, John Kelly, who indicated that Trump had said Hitler did some “good things.” She also drew parallels between Trump’s upcoming rally in Madison Square Garden and a similar pro-Nazi event from 1939, intensifying her condemnation of his behavior.

On a lighter note, Streisand’s support for the LGBTQ community coincides with the announcement that Queer Eye is returning for a ninth season on Netflix, set to premiere on December 11 in Las Vegas. This reboot of the beloved series will introduce Jeremiah Brent to the cast, leading to a wave of reactions from fans, many of whom expressed sadness over Bobby Berk’s departure. Comments ranged from longing for Berk’s return to excitement for the new season, highlighting the show’s enduring appeal.

As Queer Eye fans eagerly await the return of the series, they have just a couple of weeks left to prepare for a fresh round of transformative moments in the vibrant setting of Las Vegas.
